Plot Synopsis

This three-part documentary series reveals the wonders of the cosmos and the majesty of the universe to a new generation by delving into the mind of the world's most famous living scientist, Dr. Stephen Hawking. More than 20 years after writing his groundbreaking book, "A Brief History of Time," Hawking offers a fresh perspective, presenting his theories in what is considered to be the "golden age of cosmology." This epic series charts the history of the universe -- from the awe-inspiring energy of the big bang to the end of time itself -- and tackles the some of the biggest questions: How did the universe begin? How will it end? Could alien life be found in distant planets? And is time travel possible? Cutting edge effects, computer-generated graphics, digitally enhanced NASA archival footage and live action combine to bring Hawking's extraordinary vision of the universe to the screen.
